Abstract

A liquid ejection head includes a plurality of pressure chambers having respective ejection ports for ejecting liquid, a common liquid chamber communicating with the plurality of pressure chambers through individual liquid paths for supplying liquid to the respective pressure chambers, and a plurality of energy generating elements provided in the respective pressure chambers. The common liquid chamber has a first surface provided with the liquid paths and a second surface arranged vis-à-vis the first surface. Pressure waves sequentially generated with a time difference propagate from the respective liquid paths and are reflected by the second surface. The second surface has an inclined portion inclined relative to the first surface by a predefined inclination angle such that each pressure wave is returned to the first surface in a time not agreeing with the time difference.
